A friend of mine was remarking that this time of year can bring out the blues in him. He tries to bring out and focus on the recent, good memories of the holidays, but the 'early years' memories bubble up and kind of ruin it. Especially, he thinks about his past, his father and mother were always arguing, then Christmas came around and everyone kind of faked it for about a week or so. His father was alcoholic, his mother was very critical and drank sometimes too; both parents came from alcoholic homes. They are both still living and both remarried, so the thought of going to see them again is tough.
Any advice ? Any former alcoholics who had the faking family problem
